§ 01Overview
What the DS-2CD2387G2H-LISU/SL is
Lens options: 2.8mm or 4mm focal length.
Note: Please indicate your choice in your order message.
The DS-2CD2387G2H-LISU/SL is the deterrence model most buyers actually want from the 8MP ColorVu range: the strobe, the audible warnings and two-way audio, on a standard 802.3af PoE port at 10.5W, no PoE+ planning and no switch upgrades.
The imaging is the full Smart Hybrid Light package in 4K (3840 by 2160): an F1.0 lens rated 0.0008 lux in colour, with three night modes, white light for 24/7 colour, infrared for discretion, or smart mode that holds IR until a person or vehicle is detected and captures the event in colour.
Cross a line or zone and the strobe fires with a warning through the speaker (lab-rated 95dB at 10cm); the built-in mic completes two-way audio through Hik-Connect, and alarm plus audio line in and out handle integration.
What the step up to the G3 buys: arrayed dual mics, a louder 110dB speaker, NEMA 4X salt-air rating, EIS and a brighter 0.0005 lux rating, at the cost of a PoE+ port.
Identification runs to about 8 metres with the 2.8mm lens or 10 metres with the 4mm; 512GB MicroSD backup, metal IP67 housing.

What the DS-2CD2387G2H-LISU/SL features actually look like
Representative illustrations of how each key feature performs in a real scene.
8MP Ultra HD
8MP (4K) resolution captures four times the detail of 1080p.
Even when a person or car is far down the driveway, you can zoom in and still recognise a face or read a number plate — detail that lower-resolution cameras lose.
Even when a person or car is far down the driveway, you can zoom in and still recognise a face or read a number plate — detail that lower-resolution cameras lose.
30m IR Night Vision
Built-in infrared lets the camera see in complete darkness up to around 30m — enough for a typical driveway, front yard or entrance. People and vehicles stay clear in black-and-white, brighter the closer they are.
Full Color Night Vision
Unlike plain black-and-white night vision, this camera can capture colour after dark — so you can pick out the actual colour of a car, a jacket or a bag, detail that grey infrared footage loses.
IP67 Weatherproof
Sealed against dust and water to IP67, built to keep working through rain, storms and harsh sun — suitable for fully outdoor mounting.
Two-Way Audio
Talk and listen in real time through the app — tell a courier where to leave a parcel, or speak to someone at the gate, whether you're home or away.

§ 04Why choose this
Built for the way you actually use the DS-2CD2387G2H-LISU/SL
4K colour when it counts
Smart mode's trick: discreet IR all night, then full-colour 4K capture the moment a person steps in, the frame that identifies a jacket, not a grey shape.
Three night strategies, switchable
White light for 24/7 colour, infrared for discretion, smart mode for both, changed from the app rather than the ladder.
When to spend more
Honest guidance: the G3 adds dual mics, a louder speaker, a salt-air-rated housing and a brighter 0.0005 lux sensor, worth it on the coast or where audio evidence matters. This model does the core job for less.
§ 05Where it fits
Right at home in these scenarios
Driveways and front approaches
Smart mode holds infrared until a person steps in, then lights them in colour and warns them off, evidence and intervention in one event.
Porch and parcel theft
A spoken warning at the letterbox beats reviewing footage of a parcel leaving, and two-way audio handles the courier conversation live.
Retrofits on existing NVRs
Standard PoE means it drops into the recorder you already own, no switch upgrades to add a deterrence corner.
Shopfronts after close
The strobe through the glass and a warning at the door buy time before anyone commits, check your state's rules before enabling audio recording.
§ 06Setup
Installation & setup
What's in the Box
1. Hikvision DS-2CD2387G2H-LISU/SL Camera × 1 2. Drill Template and Screw Kit × 1 3. Quick Start Guide × 1
Installation Requirements
1. Power: any 802.3af PoE NVR port or switch (max 10.5W). A separate 12V DC adapter is only needed without PoE. 2. Network: a wired Ethernet run back to your NVR or switch, PoE carries power and video together on the same line. 3. Mounting: solid wall, ceiling or eave at 2.5 to 3 metres, with the base sealed against the surface, the housing is IP67-rated for exposed positions.
App Setup
1. Activate the camera with a strong password on first connection, then add it to the Hik-Connect app via QR code. 2. Enable push notifications so human and vehicle alerts reach your phone, and pick your lighting mode (white, infrared or smart). 2b. Pick the warning tone or record your own message, and schedule strobe and audio so deterrence sleeps when you do. 3. Draw line crossing and intrusion zones tight to your own property through the camera's web interface, with target type set to human and vehicle.
§ 07Questions
Frequently asked about the DS-2CD2387G2H-LISU/SL
Q.01
How is this different from the DS-2CD2387G2H-LIU without the S?
The LISU/SL version adds a built-in strobe light and speaker for active deterrence, so it can flash a warning and talk back. The LIU model has the mic but no strobe or speaker.
Q.02
How do the strobe and warning actually work?
When a person or vehicle crosses a line or zone you have drawn, the camera fires its strobe and plays an audible warning, a siren tone or a spoken message, through the built-in speaker (lab-rated 95dB at 10cm). Classification decides what triggers it, so headlights and animals do not set it off.
Q.03
Can I stop the white light coming on every night?
Yes. Set the supplement light mode to infrared for invisible night vision, or to smart so the white light only fires when a person or vehicle is detected, and set the Day/Night switch to Auto. In plain white-light mode the light is meant to stay on after dark, as that is how the colour happens, so switch modes rather than expecting it off in that setting.
Q.04
Can I choose infrared instead of the white light?
Yes. Smart Hybrid Light gives three modes: white light for 24/7 full-colour, infrared for discreet black-and-white night vision, or smart mode that holds infrared until a person or vehicle is detected, then switches the white light on and captures the event in colour.
Q.05
Will the white light annoy the neighbours?
It can if it points at them, as a 30-metre white floodlight is part of how ColorVu makes colour at night. Aim the camera into your own property, use smart mode so the light only fires on real detections, or run infrared mode where any visible light is unwelcome.
Q.06
How far can it see at night?
In colour, down to 0.0008 lux through the F1.0 lens with the white light reaching 30 metres; in infrared mode the range is the same 30 metres in black and white. Identification runs to about 8 metres with the 2.8mm lens or 10 metres with the 4mm.
Q.07
Which lens should I pick, 2.8mm or 4mm?
The 2.8mm covers 108.8 degrees horizontally and identifies faces to about 8 metres, right for porches, entries and close driveways. The 4mm narrows to 93.3 degrees but stretches identification to 10 metres, the better pick for a front gate or a longer approach. Neither lens is motorised, so choose by your mounting position.
Q.08
What does the G3 add over this model?
Arrayed dual microphones, a louder 110dB speaker, NEMA 4X anti-corrosion housing, EIS stabilisation and a brighter 0.0005 lux sensor, at the cost of needing an 802.3at PoE+ port. The G3 earns that on coastal and audio-critical sites; for most homes this model is the sensible pick.
Q.09
How does the human and vehicle detection work?
Deep learning on the camera classifies what triggered an event as a person, a vehicle, or neither, so a possum, rain or moving branches stay off your phone. Line crossing, intrusion and region entry and exit zones each trigger only on the target types you choose.
Q.10
Can I talk through the camera from my phone?
Yes. The built-in microphone and speaker give two-way audio through the Hik-Connect app: hear what is happening and speak to whoever is there, live.
Q.11
Which NVR do I need for this camera?
Any current Hikvision PoE NVR records it, and because the human and vehicle classification runs in the camera itself, smart filtering and the strobe and audio linkage work on the M-series recorders we build our 8MP ColorVu kits on, such as the DS-7608NI-M2/8P. Update the NVR firmware before adding the camera.
Q.12
Will it work with a non-Hikvision NVR?
Yes. It is ONVIF conformant (Profile S, G and T), so you keep video and motion events on a third-party recorder. The smoothest experience with smart filtering, two-way audio and the Hik-Connect app stays within the Hikvision ecosystem.
Q.13
Can I use this camera without an NVR?
You can. It takes a MicroSD card up to 512GB (not included) and streams to the Hik-Connect app. Most buyers still pair it with an NVR for longer retention, every camera on one timeline and easier playback; treat the SD slot as backup.
Q.14
Is a Hikvision camera safe to use in Australia?
Hikvision equipment was removed from federal government sites in 2023 as a precaution, and there is no restriction on private or business use. This camera does not need a cloud account: it records to your NVR, works fully offline, and supports HTTPS, TLS and 802.1X authentication. If you want zero outbound traffic, put the system on an isolated network and it still records locally.
Q.15
Which 8MP 2387 ColorVu should I buy?
Three cameras, one job, colour at night in 4K. The G3-LIS2UY/SL is the flagship: arrayed dual mics, the louder 110dB speaker, NEMA 4X salt-air housing and EIS, on a PoE+ port. The G2H-LISU/SL keeps the strobe, warnings and two-way talk on standard PoE for less. The G2P-LSU/SL sweeps a full 180 degrees from one mount where the job is wide coverage rather than reach.
Q.16
How is this 8MP 2387 different from the 6MP 2367 version?
Same ColorVu features, deterrence and AI, at a higher resolution. The 2387 records 4K (3840 by 2160) on a 1/1.8-inch sensor for more detail across a wide scene; the 6MP 2367 G3 is the value step down where 4K storage is not wanted. Night colour, lighting modes and identification distances are otherwise the same.
Q.17
What warranty coverage applies in Australia?
The camera carries a 3-year warranty covering defects. Buy through an authorised ANZ channel so the warranty is honoured locally. Installation labour is not covered.
Q.18
Is there a version that does not light up at night?
Yes. For a camera that stays invisible after dark, discreet infrared and black-and-white at night with no white light at all, the quiet 2366 AcuSense records and filters human and vehicle alerts the same way. This ColorVu model is the pick where night colour and active deterrence matter.
§ 09Bundles
Recommended packages
Step up for the coast
The G3 adds dual mics, a louder 110dB speaker, NEMA 4X salt-air rating and EIS, budget a PoE+ port for it.
One mount, wider view?
The G2P panoramic sweeps 180 degrees from a single position for a verandah or forecourt.
Build it into a kit
Our 8MP ColorVu kits pair M-series NVRs with a surveillance drive, the G3 is the kit camera; add this model for corners that need to answer back on standard PoE.
The 6MP version
For this exact model at 6MP, see the 2367 G2H-LISU/SL, the value pick where 4K is not needed.
